Mauritius is opening so here's a thread of some of my favourite beaches πŸŒŠπŸŠβ€β™‚οΈβ›΅

RT, spread joy, get tourism industry back on its feet πŸ™‚πŸ’ͺ🏽 Image
Grand Baie up on the north coast. Sand, sea, boats 😍 Image
Calodyne. Very coastal village vibe. Super peaceful. I love it. Image
Mont Choisy. We're still on the north coast, where most of the best beaches are imho*

*It's a heated topic in Mauritius 😁 Image
Albion. On the west coast. Not the best place to swim perhaps, but looks gorgeous. (And only 15min drive from where I live 😬) Image
Flic en flac. You'll find me here πŸŠβ€β™‚οΈ 3-4 days a week. Image
La Preneuse. Or where the sea is always warm. Image
Case Noyale. Not a beach. But it's my favourite coastal village. And kids from the village are always up for a chat while they show off their tree dangling skills haha. Image
La Gaulette. Popular spot as you can see. Image
Le Morne, down on the south west coast. The public beach is usually teeming with people. But mix with the locals on the less hectic south-most side. Image
Near Baie du Cap in the south. Not a beach but a pilgrimage site for tourists. And you can see why! Image
Blue Bay 😍😍😍 10min drive from the airport, just saying. Also site of a large marine park so bring your snorkeling gear. Image
Belle Mare. East coast. The longest beach in Mauritius. Two kilometres of sand, sea and happiness. Image
Pereybere!!! My favourite place on earth. It is just the best, man. It is just the best 😍 ImageImage
Le Bouchon. At sunset. Image
Île d'Ambre, one of the any islets around mainland Mauritius. Image

πŸ‡²πŸ‡Ί Territory of Mauritius is 1,000x larger than the size of Mauritius island.

😍 Many smaller, gorgeous islands (+ huge maritime territory) scattered all over the Indian Ocean form part of Mauritius.

Diego Garcia. It now houses a major US military base.

Illegally annexed by the British from Mauritian territory 50+ years ago, and its inhabitants were evicted.

The UK still refuses to completely decolonise Mauritius despite the UN ruling in favour of Mauritian sovereignty. Sunset in Diego GarciaAmerican military base on D...
Agalega. India is currently building a military base on the island, after years of rapprochement between the Modi government and the rightwing Mauritian government.

The <500 inhabitants of Agalega now have their movements restricted and fear expulsion altogether. Beautiful beach in AgalegaIndian military in Agalega
